According to Of Grandeur: The Law of Emotional Balance, all of your beliefs are based on your emotional balance. You became attracted to specific ideas or beliefs because of the role those beliefs or ideas play in your emotional balance. Your beliefs can be permanently changed when other sources of emotions are permanently changed as well. People can change their beliefs just like they can fall out of love with one persona and in love with another person.

The world is filled with billions of followers for different religions and to each they are correct for having those beliefs because they keep each person more emotionally balanced than they would be without those beliefs.

We have specific beliefs to cope with our environments. Some people cope with the sadness caused by their environment by using intoxicating substances, other cope with their environments by following specific beliefs.

Life is all based on one simple law and that is the Law of Emotional Balance. The Law of Emotional Balance claims that every single person will experience as much happiness as they do sadness before they are allowed to die and this mandatory requirement is what has led people to have religious beliefs.

The Law of Emotional Balance is a conservation law. A charge particle can't turn into pure energy until it has become neutral, just like a charged particle, a person can't die until they are emotionally neutral.

That's a bit flaky really.

NLP uses a set of useful pre-suppositions and beliefs. They are useful when applying change therapy. However, one thing that is accepted is that they are certainly not laws and have no proofs attached.

It's also interesting that you apply a physics principle to emotion.

Emotion isn't quantifiable, I understand what you are getting at, but it remains impossible to measure objectively. You cannot rate happiness except by the perception of the subject, so very happy and very sad don't produce an exact and equal opposite.

If this is true then there are moments I should be dead......when I become neutral?



This is a hypotheses?

Have anyone tested this?

Have you lived with someone for 24 hours all their life to observe this?

Are you aware how someone feels?

Have you placed yourself in someone else situation situation a thousand times to understand what they are going through and conclude its based on being driven by emotions?



what really is a state of emotional balance....?

I am looking at a credit card bill here and I need an emotion to push me forward to pay it.

Even though we may never be able to perfectly prove the Law of Emotional Balance because quantifying all emotions, a person will experience in their lifetime, is impossible, that does not mean that we can't build an extremely strong case to support emotional balance as a law. Even without a way of quantifying all emotions we can still determine if the Law of Emotional Balance is still a possibility or not. In the book Of Grandeur: The Law of Emotional Balance, falsifiable experiments have been added to build a case in support of emotional balance as a law. The fact also remains that in order for the Law of Emotional Balance to be true, certain base requirements would have to be met. The universe would need to have uncertainty programmed into it because without uncertainty, we could predict the future and take in only happiness and no sadness and violate the Law of Emotional Balance. We would need to have dreams where people's defenses are dropped so they could be forced to experience specific emotions to prevent the Law of Emotional Balance from being violated. We would need physiological balance in cells "Homeostasis" because cells are also living organisms that comprise other organisms like humans. We would need unusual/unique cultural structures with flexibility "Sins/penance/religion, laws, punishments, government...... The list goes on... The fact remains that all of the base requirements for the Law of Emotional Balance are in place so why not try to test to see if emotional balance is maintained by a law... Conservation laws prevent charged particles from turning back into pure energy until they are neutral. Emotions and electricity may very well be directly tied together so it is not a too much of a stretch, to say that there is a conservation law that governs emotions. There may very well be a reservoir of emotional energy and this reservoir is forced to follow the Law of Emotional Balance and is what humans have come to worship as God.

If happiness is antonym of sadness... then Meditation is antonym of Emotion.

Meditate.

And you will learn one more law. It would be your last.

Hi spreadingthegoodword,

Welcome to the AYP Forum.

Do you practice AYP?

How long have you been practicing, if so?

Why do you see this Law of Emotional Balance as so important?

Emotional Balance actually comes from knowing our true nature; all balance comes from this.



AYP is one way to come to know our true nature; there's plenty of information here, if you're interested.

We're pretty open-minded here, but we see a wide variety of theories and teachings, old and new, along with myriad interpretations, all the time.

If you just post these teachings, without introducing yourself, or interacting as a forum member here, you probably won't get a lot of interest or response.

Plus, most of us are not interested in more concepts or teachings; we know enough to know that even the best concepts and teachings can be but pointers to reality, anyway.

We're about reality, and experiencing reality, fully.

The idea that emotions are a zero-sum energy system is interesting in a way, but I'm not seeing a lot of evidence for it, in reality.

Most emotions are due to a false sense of self, an illusory separation-thought called ego, or "me". Emotions are artificially generated and magnified per the fears and desires of the ego-idea.

When the ego-idea dissolves, the emotions that are experienced tend to be natural, balanced and brief.

Wholeheartedly,

Kirtanman



PS- I'm not sure if this is what you're saying as well, but it might be accurate to say: "all beliefs are based in emotional imbalance". In knowing our true nature, we experience the reality that all beliefs are ideas, and therefore, not based in reality. Beliefs thus dissolve. In the absence of beliefs, reality shines, and emotions tend to be balanced (although "balanced" is just another concept, as well).
